		Thomas Gibson Bowles (MP for King's Lynn 1892-1906)
		The following is extracted from "The Emperor of the United States of America and Other
		Magnificent British Eccentrics" by Catherine Caufield (Routledge & Kegan Paul, London 1981)
		When, in 1887, Thomas Gibson Bowles, the founder and publisher of The Lady and Vanity
		Fair, was left a widower with four children under the age of ten, he decided upon a severely
		practical approach to the new task of childrearing. Health, he decided, was the most
		important thing. Bowles had studied some statistics that suggested that Jewish children
		were less susceptible to epidemic diseases than others. From then on his children were fed
		according to strict Mosiac law.
		The dressing of girl children seemed to him an unnecessarily complicated matter, so he
		decided to have his daughters outfitted by the naval tailor who made his sons' clothes. As
		a result Sydney and Dorothy Bowles wore thick blue serge naval uniforms and sailor's caps
		until the age of seventeen.
		In her teens, Sydney, later Lady Redesdale and mother of the remarkable Mitford girls, had
		to endure a great deal of teasing from small boys who made fun of her odd clothes. At last
		her father was persuaded to allow her to dress in a manner more becoming a young woman.
		He consulted a friend, an actress who affected very dramatic costumes. With her help, a
		long low-necked black velvet gown with a red sash and a large befeathered Duchess of
		Devonshire hat was selected as the 17-year-old Sydney's morning walking costume.
		Cap'en Tommy, as the cartoonists called him, had strict views on the correct way to take a
		bath. He dismissed the conventional method as merely 'sitting in dirty water'. Instead, he
		took steam baths at his London club. When the family went to Scotland on holiday,
		however, he had to improvise, using some dog kennels in front of the house as a temporary
		Turkish bath. Bowles would sit steaming inside the first kennel, which had been lined with
		hot bricks, before emerging into the run where the butler was waiting on the roof of the
		next kennel to shower him with bucketfuls of cold water. From his position on the roof, the
		butler could also announce the approach of any strangers whose sensibility might not be
		equal to the spectacle.
		Bowles was MP for King's Lynn from 1892-1906 [and again between January and
		December 1910]. In 1899, he announced to his daughter, Dorothy, who was by now keeping
		house for him at their home in Lowndes Square, that he was fed up with politics and
		intended to move to China. Asked when he was thing of taking this dramatic step, he replied
		"On Thursday. You'd better close up the house and pack." Dorothy did as she was told;
		said goodbye to her house-guests, had the furniture covered in dust sheets, arranged for a
		caretaker to look after thehouse, and at eleven o'clock on Thursday morning was sitting in
		Lowndes Square in a four-wheeled carriage, with all her luggage, waiting for her father
		to join her on the first leg of their journey. As Bowles came down the front steps a few
		raindrops fell; he leant in at the window of the cab and said "My dear child, it's raining. We
		won't go."
		Albert Raymond Blackburn, MP for King's Norton 1945-1950 and Northfield,
		Birmingham 1950-1951
		After a promising start, Blackburn's career spiralled rapidly downwards. The one-time Labour
		MP, whose maiden speech had been praised by Churchill, ended up as a public nuisance,
		scuffling in county courts and joining Lord Longford on anti-pornography campaigns. Had he
		been less independent - his speeches as a rule gave greater comfort to the opposition's
		front bench that to his own - and less drunk, he might have been more successful.
		In 1947, two years after entering Parliament, he was charged with being incapable in
		Piccadilly, the first of many such incidents. By 1952, Blackburn was on a steep downward
		path, albeit one he negotiated with a bankrupt's customary panache. After lunch at his own
		bankruptcy proceedings, he was told by the registrar that he had been seen at an
		expensive restaurant smoking a large cigar. In 1956, he was charged with fraudulently
		inviting the public to lease plots on a caravan site. In spite of a seven-hour speech in his
		own defence, he was sentenced to two years in prison. On appeal, he rebuked Lord Chief
		Justice Goddard for a 'very wrong remark', adding that his lordship was clearly prejudiced,
		and had already decided to send him back to prison. Goddard angrily denied this accusation,
		and then he sent him back to prison.
		After two failed marriages, his third attempt at matrimony brought him the stability that he
		needed. In the late 1960s he re-emerged as a moral vigilante. Although his campaign against
		gaming clubs was not a success, in 1975 he persuaded an Old Bailey jury that the film More
		About the Language of Love was grossly indecent. The following year, he prosecuted the
		film's predecessor The Language of Love but on this occasion failed. He had some harsh
		words for Judge Neil McKinnon, whose daughter, Gail, was a popular topless model.
		Sir Walter Henry Bromley-Davenport, MP for Knutsford 1945-1970
		Bromley-Davenport was one of the last 'knights of the shire' at Westminster, in the sense
		that he was an MP whose distinguishing feature was a county background and an innate
		sense of conservatism. Sir Walter (he was knighted in 1961) was a parliamentary character
		of the sort the British are reputed to admire. As such, he was happy throughout his years
		on the backbenches to support this perception by playing the buffoon.
		Sir Walter was reputed to have the loudest voice (and yawn) in the House of Commons. He
		liked to startle new Labour MPs when they rose to make a speech by bellowing "Take your
		hands out of your pockets!" On one occasion, Brigadier Otho Prior-Palmer, MP for Worthing
		1945-1964, attempted to speak at the same time as Bromley-Davenport. "Sit down!"
		thundered Sir Walter, which the Brigadier immediately did. This then led to a debate as
		whether a Brigadier should obey an order by a officer with less seniority (Bromley-Davenport
		was merely a Lieutenant Colonel), but the Speaker ruled that, in the House, all men were
		considered equal.
		He made good use of his booming voice outside the Commons as well. Boarding an over-
		crowded train at Crewe, he walked up and down the corridor, shouting "All change! All
		change!". This had the desired effect, since everyone got off and he was able to find a
		seat. When he was attacked in his home by a madman with an axe, he shouted "Don't let
		the NHS (National Health Service) get me!" so loudly that his attacker fled.
		During the 1987 general election, Sir Walter was invited by Neil Hamilton (MP fot Tatton
		1983-1997) to address a meeting. When Hamilton's attention was drawn to a pile of dog-
		eared notes, he asked Sir Walter when the speech had been written. Sir Walter replied
		that he had written it in 1945. He had delivered the same speech at every general election
		for 42 years and no-one had ever noticed.
		Sir Walter never reached high office, his high-point being as a junior whip in 1949. He lost
		this position as a result of celebrated error on his part. During 1950-1951, the Labour
		government had only a very small majority. As a result, there was a good chance the
		government could be defeated. The Tories commenced a war of attrition, which included
		a number of all-night sittings. As a whip, it was Sir Walter's job to prevent Tory MPs from
		sneaking off home early. One night he was stationed at a door to a staircase leading down
		to the Members' Entrance when he spotted a man rushing across the lobby. He shouted at
		him to go back into the House but this had no effect. He then tried to intercept the man
		as he reached the door but was brushed aside. This rather annoyed Sir Walter, who
		delivered a well-aimed kick at the fugitive's backside, causing him to tumble head over
		heels down the stairs, landing in a bruised heap at the bottom. Unfortunately for Sir
		Walter's career ambitions, the groaning victim was not a Tory MP at all, but the Belgian
		Ambassador. The ensuing diplomatic incident ensured Sir Walter's swift return to the
		backbenches.
